Hello
I recently reset my laptop back to windows 7 factory then i...
- updated drivers
- windows updates
- downloaded the torrent ran with tixati tixati downloaded around 12g i believe
- made 2 copies of the downloaded folders
- set folders to admin
- unchecked read only on the ROR launcher
- ran the dx9 in the ROR folder
NOTHING HAPPENS when i start launcher. it pops up run as admin and not 1 single process starts. I downloaded and ran this with no issues on my custom PC. plz could someone give some advice as to what i might do?

Ctrl Alt Delete - make sure there aren't any other processes happening?
I'd need to see what you're actually seeing to help further, can you screenshot 'nothing'?

JUST IN CASE: Did you happen to make a shortcut of the launcher?
TRY THIS: Double click the launcher from the FILE FOLDER not a shortcut but DIRECTLY from the FILE FOLDER.
I hope that was the issue and you are off to playing the game.

not 1 single process is running that was the first thing i checked. when i click launcher i have processes up. nothing happens not even a sputter. ill see if i can get this laptop to screen shot its not wanting to.
the log under launcher also shows no issues says everything is downloaded correctly

Sounds like an issue with the installation - I'd suggest trying to redownload a fresh set of files and seeing if the issue persists.
